TMJ pain can result from arthritis, facial trauma, teeth grinding, or overuse of the jaw muscles. Identifying the cause is essential for effective treatment.
You can manage TMJ pain by applying hot or cold compresses, eating soft foods, avoiding excessive jaw movements, and practicing stress-relief exercises.
No, surgery is considered only for severe cases where nonsurgical methods like TENS therapy, ultrasound therapy, or trigger point injections fail to provide relief.
The cost of TMJ treatment depends on several factors, including:
The severity of the condition
Type of treatment (nonsurgical or surgical)
Diagnostic tests required
Duration of treatment and follow-ups
